About Schnitzel Haus

Schnitzel Haus is a cozy, welcoming gem that brings the heart of German and Austrian comfort food right to your table. From the moment you walk in, the rustic, beer hall-style atmosphere sets the tone—relaxed, friendly, and full of character. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel at home. The food remains the main attraction, with dishes prepared from scratch to create a home-cooked feel. Classic Schnitzel dishes like Jaeger Schnitzel, Schnitzel A La Holstein, and Rahmschnitzel are cooked to be crispy on the outside and tender inside, with options including pork, chicken, and Jäger-style with mushroom gravy. Traditional sides such as potato salad, German potato salad, and homemade potato pancakes are flavorful and add to the authentic taste. Customers praise the tender and crispy veal, as well as the hearty sides that make each meal satisfying.

The beer selection continues to be a highlight, offering a range of German and Austrian brews—from crisp lagers to rich dunkels—served in proper steins. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help choose the perfect beer to match the meal. Besides great food and drinks, the restaurant offers entertainment options like bingo on Wednesday nights, which many customers enjoy, along with occasional trivia and karaoke events, making it a lively place to visit regularly. Despite occasional service challenges, Schnitzel Haus is known for its excellent value, with generous portions and reasonable prices, making it a favorite in the Bay Ridge neighborhood for those seeking authentic, hearty German cuisine in a relaxed setting.
